Abstract
A method and device for optimal processing of a plurality of sets of coherent states of lights. The method includes: receiving a light having a coherent state; splitting the coherent state into a plurality of identical states (slices), each a coherent state with lower intensity than that of the received coherent state; transferring the information of each of the identical coherent states into a qubit; compressing the quantum information of the qubit into a quantum memory; and quantum processing the quantum information from the quantum memory.
